Practical norms in emerging infectious disease control
Concern around the emergence of zoonoses with pandemic potential has fuelled significant foreign engagement with domestic infectious disease surveillance and response systems across Africa. These international efforts at augmentation have likely been hampered, however, by an inattention to how such systems actually manifest on the ground and the critical activities and undertakings that take place outside of official structures and protocols. Suc…
Ineffective responses to unlikely outbreaks
Over the last 30 years, there has been significant investment in research and infrastructure aimed at mitigating the threat of newly emerging infectious diseases (NEID). Core epidemiological processes, such as outbreak investigations, however, have received little attention and have proceeded largely unchecked and unimproved. Using ethnographic material from an investigation into a cryptic encephalitis outbreak in the Brong‐Ahafo Region of Ghana …

From dirty to delicacy? Changing exploitation in China threatens the world's largest amphibians
Determining the dynamics and sustainability of human interactions with threatened species is essential to inform evidence‐based conservation, but data can be challenging to collect across large areas and multiple user groups. Chinese giant salamanders Andrias spp. are critically depleted across China. Wild populations were exploited during the 20th century, and more recently to support a large‐scale farming industry. However, robust data remain l…

Citizen Science and Wildlife Disease Surveillance
Streptococcus pyogenes Infection in a Free-Living European Hedgehog (Erinaceus europaeus)
Characteristics and Risk Perceptions of Ghanaians Potentially Exposed to Bat-Borne Zoonoses through Bushmeat
Emerging zoonotic pathogens from wildlife pose increasing public health threats globally. Bats, in particular, host an array of zoonotic pathogens, yet there is little research on how bats and humans interact, how people perceive bats and their accompanying disease risk, or who is most at risk. Eidolon helvum, the largest and most abundant African fruit bat species, is widely hunted and eaten in Ghana and also carries potentially zoonotic pathoge…
Chlamydiosis in British Garden Birds (2005–2011)
The significance of chlamydiosis as a cause of mortality in wild passerines (Order Passeriformes), and the role of these birds as a potential source of zoonotic Chlamydia psittaci infection, is unknown. We reviewed wild bird mortality incidents (2005-2011). Where species composition or post-mortem findings were indicative of chlamydiosis, we examined archived tissues for C. psittaci infection using PCR and ArrayTube Microarray assays. Twenty-one …

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Religion, War, Famine and Death in Reformation Europe
This book offers a new and exciting interpretation of early European history. It considers the sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries European history through the prism of Duerer's famous woodcut of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse
Anthropogenic environmental change and the emergence of infectious diseases in wildlife
Health Care and Poor Relief in Counter-Reformation Europe
Emerging Infectious Diseases of Wildlife-- Threats to Biodiversity and Human Health
Emerging infectious diseases (EIDs) of free-living wild animals can be classified into three major groups on the basis of key epizootiological criteria: (i) EIDs associated with “spill-over” from domestic animals to wildlife populations living in proximity; (ii) EIDs related directly to human intervention, via host or parasite translocations; and (iii) EIDs with no overt human or domestic animal involvement. These phenomena have two major biologi…
Chytridiomycosis causes amphibian mortality associated with population declines in the rain forests of Australia and Central America
Epidermal changes caused by a chytridiomycete fungus (Chytridiomycota; Chytridiales) were found in sick and dead adult anurans collected from montane rain forests in Queensland (Australia) and Panama during mass mortality events associated with significant population declines. We also have found this new disease associated with morbidity and mortality in wild and captive anurans from additional locations in Australia and Central America. This is …
Uncertainty and planning for water pollution control
This paper addresses the problem of planning the construction and expansion of a sewage treatment facility operating on a river. It is argued that any model for solution of the problem must take explicit account of the many uncertainties with which the problem is fraught. An expository model of this kind is constructed and its solution discussed
